Weird commuter moment

I'm on my way into work and am typing away at emails and reading articles, half paying attention to my surroundings.  I've done this same commute over 2,500 times so the general commute fades to the background - the people getting on and off, the start and stop of the train, the general subway announcements, the occasional platform music performances you hear bits of when the doors open. 

I'm half paying attention, glancing up to see what stop we're at when I'm startled into the moment.  I'm looking at a giant mouse that's six feet tall, with a keyboard slung across it's chest (guitar style) playing with one hand and waving at me with the other, across the subway platform. I'm stunned and while my brain slowly processes this strange reality, the subway doors shut and we pull away.  End scene. Gotta love city living.

Hurrah!!!! Just what you need. The stats on unused vacation days for Americans is stunningly high. Use them while you have them. Enjoy and take lots of photos including ones with you in them.
